Another week....

Well it's another week and last week went ok. I had a 'bad' eating day on Saturday after my Commando training but I wanted it so I had it. If I deny myself I'll want it even more.


I had a good weight loss last week and am about to go down another stone bracket if I can lose the same again. So fingers crossed, I feel like I'm a bit stuck at this weight. I've yoyo'ed back and forward in the 17st bracket and I can't wait to see the back of it.


I'm only able to get to 3 Commando sessions this week and I have the Race for Life on Sunday. I know I've been talking about it for ages now but I'm starting to get nervous about it. During my Commando sessions, I do struggle with the running element and I'm about to run 5k without the Commando guys to keep me going. I think I'm going to have to hear them in my head to keep me going. Aim is to do it under an hour 'cause that's how long it takes me to walk it.


I've also discovered a company called Graze. They put together snack boxes of 'good' foods. I got my first one this morning and it looks lovely. You get your first box free and then I think it's £3  each afterwards. If anyone fancies giving them a try go to graze.com and enter the code 5WHMMY2D. You'll get a free box and I get £1 off any further boxes. I've enclosed a picture of it below.


So plan for this week is:


Monday - Commando Training
Tuesday - Commando Training
Wednesday - Nightshift
Thursday - Nightshift
Friday - Weight Watchers
Saturday - Commando Training
Sunday - Race for Life. If you're around Kirkcaldy and don't have any plans, all friendly faces on the finish line and appreciated!!

Good news!!!!

I'm not sure how to start this post.  It's been so full on with placement at the moment and I've got one more essay due for Uni. I only have 9 weeks left until I'm fully qualified. I starte d to apply for jobs a few weeks ago and got called for an interview in the hospital that I currently work in but unfortunately I didn't get it. On Saturday just passed, I went down to Manchester for an interview. I wasn't sure how the interview had gone, it was so intense. I became really aware during the interview that I was speaking very quickly in my Scottish accent and I started to concentrate on slowing down my speech. I came out of it convinced that I had done ok but not well enough to actually get the job. But all the interviews are good practice. They said they would let me know by Friday so I just put it out of my mind. However, I got a call yesterday from them......................and I GOT THE JOB!!!!! It's full time and permanent. I can't believe it,...

Devastated!!

When I wrote my last blog, I knew that I had some huge news although I didn't think I would be telling our news this early or that this is how it would end. I'm writing about this because I promised this blog would be honest and the last few weeks have had a huge impact on me as an individual and Matt & I as a couple. I discovered at the end of June that I was pregnant. I was so excited and could not believe it. With my PCOS I had given up any hope of falling pregnant naturally. I was over the moon. Unfortunately at 5 weeks I started to bleed. A week later, I had a scan but they couldn't tell me whether the pregnancy was viable anymore so I've had to wait another week. Today it was confirmed that I have lost the baby. The last 2 weeks have been some of the worst I've ever had. I've only been able to fall asleep by imagining that we were told the baby was still growing. But when I wake up it's like a jolt back to reality when I realise that that's...

Willpower

I've never considered myself one of these lucky people who have a load of willpower. In fact I would say I'm exactly the opposite but I've set myself a wee challenge to test what little willpower I have. In my handbag are 3 chocolate sweets that I got off my granny ages ago. They've just sat in the bottom of my bag and I had totally forgotten about them. During a wee craving for sugar this week, I found them and really felt like I needed them. BUT I didn't have them. So they've become sort of like a reminder that I don't need any crappy food. I watched One Born Every Minute this week and there was a woman on it who suffered from the same thing I do, PCOS. She made a good point as well. PCOS is affected by weight and to have a baby she was told that she had to lose it. She would starting weighing up junk food with a baby. Now I know that Matt and I aren't at the baby making phase yet but ultimately if I want to have a family I need to get rid of my ex...
